.... In contrast, epidermal B function in Arabidopsis can control most if not all epidermal and sub-epidermal differentiation events in petals and stamens, without any contribution from the endogenous class B genes. Possible reasons for differences in the efficacy of B-function-mediated cell communication between...

... of the lethal mutants in the eye suggests that gro BFP2 is a unique partial loss-of-function mutant. Analysis of individual ommatidia mosaic for wild-type and gro BFP2 R-cells suggests that the gro BFP2 mutation acts outside of the R-cells. These results imply that cell communication, requiring...

... epithelium of the brain and retina. These observations suggest the presence of region-specific signaling mechanisms and, possibly, an impedance of cell communication among subpopulations of cells in these structures at critical stages of development.

...Thomas Becker; Gerhard M. Technau Cell –cell communication is not only a common strategy for cell fate specification in vertebrates, but plays important roles in invertebrate development as well. We report here on experiments testing the compatibility of mechanisms specifying cell fate among six...
